I'm reading the Kings forum and I'm shocked at how NBA educated they are. A few are excited about it, but most of them know that Vasquez's defense negates his passing and that they're basically getting a dime and cap space (that they probably won't use intelligently) in exchange for a 50 cent piece.



They really are a great market. People pick on size, as in volume of money available, but access to that money matters.

They love their team, and it shows.

Time to pass them.

I hate that we are trading away our two best trade assests to get Tyreke instead if signing him outright but it does clear a little bit of cap space to pursue FA

IM IN!! FAN UP NEW ORLEANS!!

Evans knows how to finish and he can work on his shot we have so much pressure on Gordon to step his game up and that can be scary.

Jrue Gordon and Evans all can handle the bar and have the ability to finish... I really think the offense we can run will not matter if AD at 5 and Anderson at 4.

However on defense Anderson has to step his game up on some 7 footers or athletic 6'10's and AD has to play Hibbert type defense (All-Star center defense)

It gives us more flexibility than we would have had dumping Lopez to sign Evans outright + using Vasquez as a trade piece.

We should be able to use all $5.8m in cap space that we have now, but we have to do it before the Tyreke S&T goes through.

Let me toss something out here for people to mull over.

This is to all the people who are completely supportive of doing a S&T with NO for Vasquez because they believe that DA is a smart guy and that Vivek wants to build a winning team this year...since he invested so much money in the team.

There really hasn't been a lot of 'confirmation' that the Kings will definitively do this S&T. Meaning something from the Front Office of SAC or NO.
What if DA at the moment is trying to work out a big impact acquisition with the capspace that will be available. (Let's just say that we're talking to Iggy again)

And let's say that he isn't able to get that impact player, so he moves on to plan B, and that falls through, then on to plan C, and that falls through.

He's got 6 days to try to work out a deal to use this capspace. What if after 5/6 days all the deals he wants to make fall through and he sees how hard it is to use cap space here in the Sacramento market.

At that point, if I'm being smart I'd not do the S&T and instead match the offer.
Why?

Because there is nothing wrong with retaining Tyreke and seeing if it could work with B-Mac & Cousins...and there is nothing preventing an actual trade, perhaps at the trade deadline with NO for the exact same sort of deal that is being proposed now.

Anyway...I guess I'm saying that a smart GM would keep his options open...and if the deals that are being attempted fall through, it might be better to hold on to an asset rather than letting it go in a trade that is lopsided in the other partner's favor.

Damn, some of their fans are so desperate.
